Thumbs up Leda Geometry Day...

As some of you know, i've contacted Leda, with regard to geometry setups and alignment.

this is what i got back from them:

Hi Daren,

We'd be very happy to accommodate your club for a day/half day.

We normally charge £100 for an alignment, which includes basic adjustments and takes about an hour. If it is a particularly tricky one, we sometimes add a bit more for the extra time and labour.
For a group however, we can discount this price. I'm not sure we would be able to do more than 8 cars though, although we are happy for a larger group to come along for a factory visit (we are quite small) and some advice on set-ups and handling.

I look forward to hearing from you again soon.

Best regards
Beverley Miles
Leda Suspension Ltd


if anyone is interested, add your name, and i'll see what dates they can do (probably end June/early July) if more than 8, we can split the days.

Go to MFI they are giving 30% off their Sale prices and an extra 10% throughout the store, then the money you save can go towards your wheels that you want...Once you do it then it's done and then you can spend more ££'s on your car...

Tiny, i hope you didn't mind mate, but with the open day at elite cancelled, i wanted to do something before my nice new tyres got shredded up!!!
and i know there were a fair few people on the elite list.

Hopefully some people might come along for the information as well as i'm
sure there is some interesting knowledge to gain here!!!!

also i'm sure a beer might be organised for afterwards!!!!!
so we can talk about damping forces, toe-ins, understeer, and castor angles for a bit longer!!! lol

i hope we get 8 people!!!

come on folks, you know you want to corner so much!!!!!!

The people at LEDA will definately look after you....
When they set up the geometry on our rally car, it took about 45 mins, because the technician was a bloody perfectionist....lots of small adjustments to get it dead right......so you will be in very good hands...

Have a look at the GALFER/AP brake set ups that they are now offering.....

enjoy

53 wrx, dont worry about it mate, if there's more than 8 people, i'll split it into 2 visits!!!!
i'm only in a hurry before my new tyres shred up!!! and elite kept putting the dates back etc...
also i'm very interested in this subject and i know Leda have a VERY good reputation.

i was going there anyway and thought others might benefit from a small discount, if included (plus i'll have a few people to talk to!!)

Cool, I had mine done at elite not so long ago, top job overall but I think the set up could be better and Leda look pretty impressive. This has been a good week for me, new DDX-6029 head unit and signed up for some top alignment.

Ah ha .... found you

I've been trying to sort out dates for this, and can only do a weekday for this month and the first half of July. The earliest Saturday I can do won't be until until the end of July at least.

As for what we can do on the day, we'll be able to do the full tracking front and rear, but for major alignment adjustments, there may not be the time on a day like this. If further work was required, we could book you back in on another day when there is more time.

Is a weekday OK with you all, if so, I'll get some dates for you to pick.

Thanks Darren
